I hate the amount of people telling me to just start my own sub when I mention that I miss Reddit’s variety. As if it was piss easy to get a whole community rolling by yourself
They’re not being flippant. They want you to grow the community. They want to see it too. We’re all here because we want to see Lemmy grow.
We’re willing to help as much as we can. I’m posting way more than I would normally. In fact I usually only lurk. But I want to get content here. So if you make a community I’ll post to it. As much as I can.
Yep as someone based in Australia I’m also missing AusFinance as the US instance wouldn’t even apply to us due to regional differences. Unfortunately Reddit will stay relevant for a long time for niche topics, but I still enjoy Lemmy for everything tech related & memes.
Just that there’s stuff besides that then men certainly wouldn’t enjoy. I don’t think anyone here cares about lashes or what eyeshadow palette just released lmao
Just feels like stereotyping to me. I know lots of people who go against that mold because I’m part of the queer community where there’s more diversity. It seems like your problem is less an absence of girls and more a presence of patriarchal conditioning on the population here.
I try to analyse gendered statements like this from the perspective of “can every gender say something similar to this in a perfect world”. And since I’ve only ever met one other person with my gender, it would be unreasonable of me to expect there to be more people of my gender here. I need to find a better way of saying that sort of thing, and doing so taught me there’s a better way of saying what you did too

Great, I’ll be expecting your participation in /skincare, weddingplanning, engagementrings, kpopthoughts, indiemakeupandmore, …
The issue is that some of them already have instances, but only 1 sub so I’d be talking to myself all day long
The female userbase is virtually non-existent and until that changes I’m forced to stay on Reddit for relevant news and financial advice.
!skincare@lemmy.world
!weddingplanning@lemmy.world
!engagementrings@lemmy.world
!kpopthoughts@lemmy.world
!indiemakeupandmore@lemmy.world
If we are going to do this, lets do it properly!
Yes I hope that !personalfinance@lemmy.ml gets some more traction over time, there is definitely a gap in that area.

There is hope for !ausfinance@aussie.zone
That’s for sure, we have a long way to go, but good to see that you enjoy it here!
There is a bunch of communities on Aussie.zone
It’s sparse for now, but they are growing. In users, content and engagement.
Nonbiney intersex here, I’m a little over half female, what’s so important about having full blooded women here?
They tend to be more interested in girly fluff topics like skincare, nail art, weddings, jewellery & guru gossip
Feel free to participate
Fool. Everyone knows girls are into linux, blahaj, D&D, post-ironic memes, technopunk subgenres, summoning demons, and stripey socks
Not saying we’re not into it :D
